A report by Axios, cited by Israeli media overnight, states that US President Donald Trump agreed to support Saudi airstrikes on Yemen during a phone conversation with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman last Friday. The report, attributed to a single source, has not been independently verified. The development comes amid a broader pattern of US-Saudi coordination on regional security issues, including ongoing negotiations with Iran. As The Zioneer previously reported, bin Salman and Trump have discussed Iran negotiations in recent weeks. The reported support for Saudi operations in Yemen marks a potential shift in US posture toward the conflict, though the report remains unconfirmed.
